Max is an obedient bear who has lived all his life in the circus. Between the glory of the limelight and the darkness of the backstage, he reveals the cruelty of his master Harvey and the suffering of Tina, the star of the show whom he secretly loves. When Tina's despair pushes her to rebel on stage, the three are led to their last act and to the inevitable end.
A non-verbal puppetry play about dreams, nightmares and broken hopes.
Behind the Scenes
Max's name is a tribute to a real bear named Max, who was kept for years as a pet at the entrance to a palace in the city of Sinaia in Romania. He was forced to stand on two legs to be photographed with tourists for a fee to the person who traded in him. As he became old, after years of suffering, Max was rescued, blind and crippled, and was taken for rehabilitation. He ended his life in a quiet rehabilitation farm in the mountains of Zarnesti, where he gained some peace.
